Em Em

A A recruiting sergeant came our way

G G

From an inn near town at the close of day

Em Em

He said my Johnny you're a fine young man

G G B7 B7

Would you like to march along behind a military band

G G D D

With a scarlet coat and a fine cocked hat

Em Em B7 B7

And a musket at your shoulder

Em Em D D C C B7 B7

The shilling he took and he kissed the book

Em Em B7 B7 Em Em

Oh poor Johnny what'll happen to ya?



Em Em

The recruiting sergeant marched away

G G

From the Inn near town at the break of day

Em Em

Johnny came too with half a ring

G G B7 B7

He was off to be a soldier to go fighting for the King

G G D D

In a far off war in a far off land

Em Em B7 B7

To face the foreign soldier

Em Em D D C C B7 B7

But how will you fare when there's lead in the air

Em Em B7 B7 Em Em

Oh poor Johnny what'll happen to ya?



Em Em

Well the sun rose high on a barren land

G G

Where the thin red line made a military stand

Em Em

There was sling shot, chain shot, grape shot too

G G B7 B7

Swords and bayonets thrusting through

G G D D

Poor Johnny fell but the day was won

Em Em B7 B7

And the King is grateful to ya

Em Em D D C C B7 B7

But your soldiering's done and they're sending you home

Em Em B7 B7 Em Em

Oh poor Johnny what'll happen to ya?



Em Em

They said he was a hero and not to grieve

G G

For the two ruined legs and the empty sleeve

Em Em

They took him home and they set him down

G G B7 B7

With a military pension and a medal from the crown

G G D D

But you haven't an arm, you haven't a leg

Em Em B7 B7

The enemy nearly slew ya

Em Em D D C C B7 B7

You'll have to go out on the streets to beg

Em Em B7 B7 Em Em

Oh poor Johnny what'll happen to ya?

Em Em G G D D C C

O Polly love, O Polly, the route has now begun

G G C C G G C C Em Em

And we must go a-marching to the beating of a drum



Come dress yourself all in your best and come along with me

Em Em G G D D Em Em

I'll take you to the cruel wars in High Germany



Em Em G G D D C C

O Harry, dearest Harry, mind well what I do say

G G C C G G C C Em Em

My feet they are so tender and I cannot march away



Besides, my dearest Harry, I am with child by thee

Em Em G G D D Em Em

Not fitted for the cruel wars in High Germany



Em Em G G D D C C

I'll buy you a horse, my love, and on it you shall ride

G G C C G G C C Em Em

And all of my delight shall be walking at your side



We'll stop at every alehouse and drink when we are dry

Em Em G G D D Em Em

Be true to one another, get married by and by



Em Em G G D D C C

O cursed be the cruel wars, that ever they should rise

G G C C G G C C Em Em

And out of merry England, press many a man likewise



They took her Harry from her, likewise her brothers three

Em Em G G D D Em Em

And sent them to the cruel wars in High Germany
